another new guy!
Posted by Anonymous on Friday, January 16, 2004 12:00 PM
Hello everyone,

I'm getting back into plastic kits after a looong (30 year?) hiatus. I'm working on an Accurate Miniatures Doolittle B-25 and I'm having a blast.

I have a few kits saved from my youth that I hope to build, assuming I can find some new decals. A lot seem to be 1/32 scale (aircraft) which seems to be less popular today.

My "big prize" in the garage is an Aurora 2001 Moon Bus, complete and unbuilt . I should probably convert this to cash to get some new kits. From what I can tell it's a pretty choice item. Somewhere I read that FSM readers voted it "most desireable" or some such thing - can anyone provide any info about this kit?

I look forward to gleaning lots of good hints here!

Welcome to the forum, snightingale, and welcome back to the hobby.
I have also heard that the Moonbus is a coveted kit. Check out eBay to see what the going price is. Bound to bring a pretty penny.
Have fun & enjoy the forum !
